The Beauty of the Heavens. . Row delightful it is to contemplate "the heav-enj They are "stretched out as a curtain to dwell iu!" Not Only as fir as the human eye can se, but beyond the remotest ' boundary which the highest telescopic power can reach, does the ethereal firmament extendi We can find no li ant, no boundary. Millions of miles may be traversed from anv given point of space, and still the heavens appear illimitable. Infinity is stamped upon them. And with what gorgeous splenlor and magnificence is that curtain adorned! : In every direction it is studded with worlds, suns, and systems all harmoniously moving in perfect and undeyiating obedience to the Almighty will. The soul in such a contemplation is absorbed. Earth ceases to hold ui with its silver chain. The mind, set free from grovelling pursuits, up, as on the wiogs of an eagle, and soars away through immensity of space, surveying and admiring the innumerable revolving orhs. which, like so many "crowns of glory' and ''diadems of beaotv," bespangle that firmament "whose antiquity is of ancient days," and which so powerfully attest that "the hand that made them is divine!" The immense distance of the fixed stars claims onr attention, and awakens the most en rapinring feelings in the mind. . Reason is com' pelled to give the reins to imagination, which tells us there are stars so distant that their light has been shining since ; the creation, and yet, amazingly rapid as light travels, so ray from them has yet reached us! ''The heavens truly declare the glory of God." and, in beholding inch a display of glory and beauty we are deeply impressed with its mani festation of the power of the Creator, who sustains, npho'ds and preserves such rarrids of ponderous revolein? bodies, each in its orbit, moving in unrriug obedience to His will. : Punctuality. . Ah! that's the word punctuality! did you ever see a man who was punctual who did not prosper in- the long mi.?

To build a happy home six things are requisite: Integrity must be the architect, tidiness the upholsterer. It must be . warmed by affection, lighted np with cheerfulness, and industry must be the ventilator, renewing the atmosphere and bringing in fresh salubrity day by day; while over all, as a protecting canopy and glory, nothing will suffice except the blessing of God.

Talbot, in commencing a series of articles for the Fort Wayne Times in rsgsrd to the: Wyandotte Cave, makes the following epm-parUon between Wyandotte cave, one of the most extensive and remarkable in the world, is situated in Crawford county, Indiana, about twenty five miles below New Albany, on Blue river. I have called it a remarkable cave. The Mammoth Cave of Kentucky has hitherto been des-. ieneted as the greatest known cave in the world. It may startle your scientific readers to bear me assert the fact, that there is one stalagmite alone in Wyandotte Cave more massive than all the stalagmites and stalactites in Mammoth Cave put together. This cave I have surveyed and mapped a distance of twenty miles in length, and there are numerous avenues, I have never penetrated to their end, although I have visited the cave fr scientific and other purposes, over. ad-'Z-en different times spending on one visit four days and. nizhta within its darksome halls. : - The Mammoth Cave is distinguished more for its vastness than its beauty. the Wyandotte for its great extent its mammoth balls, its lofty ceilings reaching frequently to the height of 267 feet; and especially for its numerovs and beautiful nataral fountains which almost continually meet the eye in every direction. A portion of this cave has been known and visited for over forty years. This portion is about three miles in length, and is termed The Old Cave.: In 1850 a new door from within the old cave was discovered, which extended the caves united to about twelve miles in extent. In 1853 a still newer discovery of ingress : was accidentally made, which has added eight or ten rallies thereto, end diac-loaed elan of formations more ex-ttnsive and more beautiful than any heretofore known. - This cove contains every kind of formation peculiar to the Mammoth and o'her caves besides some very peculiar aud uuique fu-matioos found Only in Wyandotte Cave.

A 8ingular Affair A Ian Falls in Xove with His own Danghier Grand De-nonnexnent. ; " : Some, fifteen years ago a man named George Bristol left this eity for the shores of the Pacific. At the time he left he had a wife and one child. the latter only three years old. They resided in the town of Westerlo. At that time hi wife and child were livinir with ber father. Some twor years alter the father and mother, of the woman died, their estate was disposed of to satisfy mortr gsges,and Mrs. Bristol and ber child were thrown upon the cold charities of the world for a living. She was very feeble in ' health, and, of course, was enable to take care of herself. " . ,- f . . " The mother and child came to this city, where they lived for some five years, at the expiration of which time the mother died and the girl was left alone in the world, to do as best she could. Being now about ten years old, and a smart, active, good-looking girt, ah soon found a situation in a respectable family. V Here she remained till she was fifteen years old, when she bo and herself out to a milliner. She served three years at that business, and had becoma mixtresa uf bar pmfev tion. , iow, tb sirar-tct cf tLb rcci! tion is to be told The girl is now over eighteen years old, and a perfect model of her sen. : During this long interval, it matt be remem bered that the girl lost all track of ber father. Her beauty attracted the attention and admiral tion of a spruce-looking gentleman who met ber on Broad way. v He was .a man of about forty years, but bis appearance did not indicate that be bad ever seen over twenty-five summers. An acquaintance was made between ber and tii"'gen- tl-man above alluded to, and a final engagement entered into for marriage. The day was set and all the necessary arrangements made I3t. the ceremony. .. -: 'J.'.--; On the appointed day the pair accompanied by their respective friends, met for the purpose of having the plighted ones jot oed j in wedlock. Just before the minuter commenced the marriage rites, an old con pie entered. They were formerly neighbor of the Bristol family,! and had watched the girl grow up from infancy? end were now anxious to see the choice she had made in a partner for Fife. Imagine the surprise of aI about when the old couple above referred to recognized in the "mw of the girl s heart," her own legitimate father. v For a moment all was amazement and sadness but pn the state of things being fully realized, the sceue turned to one of joy. An absent father had recovered a lost daughter, and the assembled throog of friends wero highly delighted that the affair had resulted as it did. The love that had before burnt so brightly between the twain had now become a flume as inextinguishable as the fires of Vesuvius. A queer world, this.. Origin of the Imperial Gaard. ; The imperial Guard originated in the first campaign, of Napoleon I, after the taking of Milan, when the Freuch were in pursuit of the retreating Austrians hear the river Mincio. ; The circumstances are thus narrated by Abbott, in hi Life of Bonaparte: Though the. Austrians were some fifteen thousand strong, and though they had partially demolished the bridge, the march of Napoleon was retaided scarcely an hour. Napoleon was that day sick, suffering from a violent headache. Having crossed the river, and concerted all his plans for the pursuit of the flying enemy, be went into an old castle by tfle river side to try the c f- fects of a foot-bath. He had but a small retinue with him, his soldiers being dispersed in the pursuit of the fugitives. . lie had just placed his feet in the warm water, when be heard the loud 'clatter of horses' hoefs, as a squadron of Austrian dragoons galloped in to theourt yard. The sentinel at the door shouted "To arms! to arms! the Austrians!" Napoleon sprang from te bath, hastily drew on one boot and with the other in his hand, leaped from the window, e&paped to the garden through the back gate, mounted a horse, and galloped to Massena's division, who were cooking their din ner, at a short distance from-tb castle. The ap pearance of their commander in chief among them in such a plight roused . the soldiers from their camp kettles, and . they rushed in pursuit of the Austrians, who, in their turn, retreated. -This personal. risk induced . Napoleon to establish a body guard, to consist of five hundred veterans, of at least ten years service, who were ever to accompany him. This was the origin of the Imperial Guard, which in the, subsequent wars of Napoleon obtained such a world-wide renown. Terrible Thunder Storms in England. The late English papers speak of severethunder-storms as having. occurred all over England. At Stoke and other villages, known as the "Potteries," the thunder an J lightning coo tinned for upwards of an hour, and accompanied by an im-meuse fall, of rain. Children, and women, and even men; of mature age were heard shrieking in the houses. The Liverpool Post says: v. We regret to state in the storm of Sunday morniog, several persons Were severely injured in and near Lrtudon, and more than one killed, to say nothing of market gardens and gentle men's preserves near L tndon being literally washed away, the standing crop of choice flowers aod exotics being carried, as it were, by a vast cataract, running upon the grounds and destroying everything it came ia contact with. Trees in the immediate neighborhood of Clap-ham, Merton, Lo wer Merdoti, Wads worth, Cheam, Epom, Le wish am and Eriih. were split in twain by the f rce of the eleciric fluid; aad many persons .'were so terribly alarmed at each peal of thunder that followed the flashes of lightning, which occurred almost momentarily, that they rushed from their beds in a state bordering npon frenzy, and took up" their positions in the open raad, at s time . when the rain was descending in torrents, thinking that the open air, although they were exposed to the pelting of the pitiless storm, was safer than remaining' in their own bouses, which they expected momentarily to be burled to the grouod-v J; 1 . . ; .j.

The circumstances under which Mrs. Latham, aged twenty-six years, aud her daughter, aged even, lost their live instantly on the morning of the 4ih inU, at Fort Wayne, Indiana, axe distressing in the extreme. The mother aod daughter were in a carriage, iu company with Mr. Cosgrova intending to visit friends in a neighboriog town- On attempting to cross the eanal bridge, near the fort, the horse took flight nt a bill posted on the bridge, and com meuced backing. Mr. Cosgrova attempted to check the retrograde movement of the horse, but without effect; and just as he had jumped out for the purpose of taking the horse by the head the car riage backed off the bridge, the railing (as is the case with most ot our bridges) being broken away. Mrs. Latham and her daughter fell out at the back of-'the. buggy to the bottom of the canal, in which there was no water at the lime a distance of fifteen feet, the horse and buggy falling on them, and were instantly killed. The little boy, about four years old, fortunately, remained in the top o; the buggy, and escaped with little injury. The horse was I killed on the spot. Mrs. Latham's neck was dislocated, and some of her ribs broken; her daughter also had her neck broken, and vti otherwise injured. Mr. Cosgrove was only slightly bruised. HUX Sickness. This mysterious and terrible disease has ever since the first settlement of the country occa sionally affected certain localities of Ohio. In this county we have of .late years but rarely heard of it but in Madison, Marion and the southern portion of Union, it has been more common. The last number of the Marion Re-publieaA notices a recent instance in which it proved terribly fatal on a farm in Richland township, in the south-eastern portion of that county. Mr. William Fisher, his wife, two adopted children, and a tenant named Gilson, were all attacked and died within a few day, the best medical skill of the county proving of no avail to arrest the disease or relieve the suffering of the victims.

The Position of Thomas Corwin, 1 : In addressing bis constituents at Xenia, Mr. Corwin. speaking of the Fugitive Act, said "He regarded it tlie sacred duty of every citizen to obey the law when it should have been decided at such by the legislative and judicial depart-menU of the country. He who would not could tut be u g'jod citizen. - lie would have men obey the law and if they disobeyed, he would bring their heads to the Hock, if the law required it." Now, if, as Mr. Corwin asserts, nineteen twentieths of the Republican party in Ohio agree with him about the Fugitive Act, and hold it to be a constitutional law, how eould he pursue the Course he did iu the Republican Convention and permit that body to strike down Judge Swan fur holding to be a couauiuUou&l euactuieutl - How can he now stand up betore an audience in Greene county aod thus declaim, after his con duct in the State Convention. He was a mau of position in that body. He had the ability to speak out ana to rebuke the attempt to strike down Swan, aud if ha had done so his voice nd his counsel would have had iuflueuce, and a check might thus have been given to the de-mauds and the designs of the fanatics. But Mr. Corwin took care while in the position of a Del egate, where ne bad power, to be very silent. ludeed be acquiesced in and approved of all that was done. We announced the fact the morning of the Convention, aud before it had aasembleo, that Corwin had surrendered to Giddings, aud for which aiatemeut w were taken to task by the Cincinnati Times, the announcement we made was true, aud what afterwards transpired in the Convention proved it. Aod we now state that the brief but bold and just language used by Air. (Jorwio, iu relation to it being the abso lute doty of men to obey' the law, and which we quote above, is used by him deceitfully and with the intent to ingratiate himself into toe good opinion of Old Line Whigs, Americans and Conservative Republicans, who hold and believe honestly in what he said, with the - hope onnis part of finally inducing them to onite with the Republican party, f bat is the part assigned bim in the Republican programme of this campaign, and be will endeavor to play it with all the dexterity of which he is capable. Deunison by his letter to the Cleveland meeting bas disaffected many, and Gholsou by his accepting the nomination for Judge, after dishonorable and inde fensible means used to defeat Swan, is not satisfactory to thousands upon thousands. To re con cdle all such, if possible, and bring them into the Republican ranks, is the mission assigned to Corwin, aud after his mean and cowardly surrender in the Convention, and hi treachery to the conservative element in the Republican par. ty, he now goes about aad proclaim that be would have the law obeyed, and those who did not obey it be would bring to the block. Val-liant language, Mr. Corwin, but not to be used io the presence ot Mr. Giddings, not to be pro claimed at Oberlin, or announced in the regions of Ashtabula. No, up there it is Republicanism to assert that those who do obey the law are "pirates" and ought to be murdered by the negroes, and it is to pot power into the hands of such base men that Mr. Corwin will labor with all bis energies. How wonderlolly strange that a man of Mr. Corwin' ability and position can be so very "unfair, dishonest and oncndid. in his intercourse with his fellow men. But he baa sur rendered to Giddings, and is to give help for help again. Next winter will develop the reason why. ;;';; Judge Hancey and the Hahoning Conn -.- ty Meeting. The story which the Republican paper have circulated in relation to the part which Judge Raoney took in an anti fugitive slave law meeting, held in Mahoning County in 1850. shortly after the passage Of that law, is a misrepresentation from beginning to end. The facts are simply these: There was held, shortly after the passage of the law, in Mahoaiug County (as well as in all the counties in that part pf the Stile) a meeting to denounce the fugitive slave act. It was court week, and after the adjournment of the court in the evening, Judge Ranney having just closed the argument in a case, the political meeting was organized, and immediately proceeded to work. - Judge Ranney remained in the Court House, and after many speeches had been made against the fugitive alave law, and forcible resis tance counseled and ad vised, the Judge was called for, and in response to the call spoke from five to ten minutes, to the effect that such meetings were premature: that it would be much better to have the law examined and fully understood, before action of any kind was 't aken against, and that if npon examination it was found to he ob- jectiooaJ, tbere was a legal or constitutional way to have it either amended or repealed, and that any other mode of resistance to it, however objectionable persons might regard it, ought not to be advised by any party. Judge Ranney was not there to attend the meeting; but being in the court room in the line of his profession, when the court adjourned and the Higher Law meeting organized, he simply remained as a spectator, and being thus at the meeting, was called out, and spoke in substance as we have here stated. These are the simple facts, and they are. consistent with Judge Ran ney's character (ot prudence and good sound sense. . : All stories to the reverse of what we here state, in relation to this subject, are falsehood made foe the occasion, by the unscrupulous men of the Republican party. ; - . The firgfr-anthority for this s tor was the editor of the Noble County Register. It happened to turn out that there" was no each paper. Then the editor of the Mahoning County Register was put forth as sponsor to it, and be, we presume, would be qualified, if necessary, that black was white and white was black. It was thought however, that an endorser for him must be hatf and it was then stated that Giddings Touched for it. That may all be but it is still a lie, and would remain one if Giddings swore to it. But Giddings was not there, and therefore whatever be may say about it is all sheer nonsense. We assert,' and npon the - best authority, that any version of Judge Ran ney's connection with the Mahoning meeting, inconsistent with what we bave represented, is a. false and groundless fabrication and slander.- OAto Statesman. - Hard .to "Pleat 1 -''s " It is Imposibls, says tbe ' Harrisbarg Puiriot, for the. present Administratioa to do anything plessing to the Opposition grcmblera.

' Judge Gbolson, it seems, does not like tL idea of Judge Spalding catechising him on th subject of the Fugitive Slave Law, which the Judge promised io bis speech at Oberlin to do. Tbe Cincinnati Commercial, which has tbe reputation of being Gholsou's borne organ, bas a bitter article against Judge Spalding, predicated on his letter to tbe Washington JZepuMic, iu which we find tbe following: "Mr. Spalding, it may be well to remark in this connection, was dropped by the same Convention, because be was a rampant Abolitionist, who desired to override alt law which interfered wiib his auti-slavery sentiment. All such men will be dropped wherever tbey cau be found. We do not recognize men to be Republicans here in Southern Ohio, who are io favor of disregarding laws, and who preach fire and sword as rem edies for evils for which a cure, certain though slow, may be found in tbe ballot-box." If Judge Spalding was dropped for the rearon assigned, that he was a rampsut Abolition itU, "who desired to over-ride all law which interfered with his anti-slavery sertitnenU," what was Judge Swan dropped for? Judge Swan sustained the law and the Constitution, and for this he was dropped, and now the Com mercial ha the face to say that Judge Spalding was dropped by the same Convention because he wouldn't do that which Judge Swan bad bis Judicial bead taken off for doing. In Southern Ohio, they do not recognize men as belonging to the Republican party, tbet are in favor of disregarding the laws." although tbey Jo aid and abet io tbe ostracism of a Judge who upholds them.

Millions of miles may be traversed from anv given point of space, and still the heavens appear illimitable. Infinity is stamped upon them. And with what gorgeous splenlor and magnificence is that curtain adorned! : In every direction it is studded with worlds, suns, and systems all harmoniously moving in perfect and undeyiating obedience to the Almighty will. The soul in such a contemplation is absorbed. Earth ceases to hold ui with its silver chain. The mind, set free from grovelling pursuits, up, as on the wiogs of an eagle, and soars away through immensity of space, surveying and admiring the innumerable revolving orhs. which, like so many "crowns of glory' and ''diadems of beaotv," bespangle that firmament "whose antiquity is of ancient days," and which so powerfully attest that "the hand that made them is divine!" The immense distance of the fixed stars claims onr attention, and awakens the most en rapinring feelings in the mind. . Reason is com' pelled to give the reins to imagination, which tells us there are stars so distant that their light has been shining since ; the creation, and yet, amazingly rapid as light travels, so ray from them has yet reached us! ''The heavens truly declare the glory of God." and, in beholding inch a display of glory and beauty we are deeply impressed with its mani festation of the power of the Creator, who sustains, npho'ds and preserves such rarrids of ponderous revolein? bodies, each in its orbit, moving in unrriug obedience to His will. : Punctuality. .

I have called it a remarkable cave. The Mammoth Cave of Kentucky has hitherto been des-. ieneted as the greatest known cave in the world. It may startle your scientific readers to bear me assert the fact, that there is one stalagmite alone in Wyandotte Cave more massive than all the stalagmites and stalactites in Mammoth Cave put together. This cave I have surveyed and mapped a distance of twenty miles in length, and there are numerous avenues, I have never penetrated to their end, although I have visited the cave fr scientific and other purposes, over. ad-'Z-en different times spending on one visit four days and. nizhta within its darksome halls. : - The Mammoth Cave is distinguished more for its vastness than its beauty. the Wyandotte for its great extent its mammoth balls, its lofty ceilings reaching frequently to the height of 267 feet; and especially for its numerovs and beautiful nataral fountains which almost continually meet the eye in every direction. A portion of this cave has been known and visited for over forty years. This portion is about three miles in length, and is termed The Old Cave.: In 1850 a new door from within the old cave was discovered, which extended the caves united to about twelve miles in extent. In 1853 a still newer discovery of ingress : was accidentally made, which has added eight or ten rallies thereto, end diac-loaed elan of formations more ex-ttnsive and more beautiful than any heretofore known. - This cove contains every kind of formation peculiar to the Mammoth and o'her caves besides some very peculiar aud uuique fu-matioos found Only in Wyandotte Cave.

A 8ingular Affair A Ian Falls in Xove with His own Danghier Grand De-nonnexnent. ; " : Some, fifteen years ago a man named George Bristol left this eity for the shores of the Pacific. At the time he left he had a wife and one child. the latter only three years old. They resided in the town of Westerlo. At that time hi wife and child were livinir with ber father. Some twor years alter the father and mother, of the woman died, their estate was disposed of to satisfy mortr gsges,and Mrs. Bristol and ber child were thrown upon the cold charities of the world for a living. She was very feeble in ' health, and, of course, was enable to take care of herself. " . ,- f . . " The mother and child came to this city, where they lived for some five years, at the expiration of which time the mother died and the girl was left alone in the world, to do as best she could. Being now about ten years old, and a smart, active, good-looking girt, ah soon found a situation in a respectable family. V Here she remained till she was fifteen years old, when she bo and herself out to a milliner. She served three years at that business, and had becoma mixtresa uf bar pmfev tion. , iow, tb sirar-tct cf tLb rcci! tion is to be told The girl is now over eighteen years old, and a perfect model of her sen. : During this long interval, it matt be remem bered that the girl lost all track of ber father. Her beauty attracted the attention and admiral tion of a spruce-looking gentleman who met ber on Broad way. v He was .a man of about forty years, but bis appearance did not indicate that be bad ever seen over twenty-five summers. An acquaintance was made between ber and tii"'gen- tl-man above alluded to, and a final engagement entered into for marriage. The day was set and all the necessary arrangements made I3t. the ceremony. .. -: 'J.'.--; On the appointed day the pair accompanied by their respective friends, met for the purpose of having the plighted ones jot oed j in wedlock. Just before the minuter commenced the marriage rites, an old con pie entered. They were formerly neighbor of the Bristol family,! and had watched the girl grow up from infancy? end were now anxious to see the choice she had made in a partner for Fife. Imagine the surprise of aI about when the old couple above referred to recognized in the "mw of the girl s heart," her own legitimate father. v For a moment all was amazement and sadness but pn the state of things being fully realized, the sceue turned to one of joy. An absent father had recovered a lost daughter, and the assembled throog of friends wero highly delighted that the affair had resulted as it did. The love that had before burnt so brightly between the twain had now become a flume as inextinguishable as the fires of Vesuvius. A queer world, this.. Origin of the Imperial Gaard. ; The imperial Guard originated in the first campaign, of Napoleon I, after the taking of Milan, when the Freuch were in pursuit of the retreating Austrians hear the river Mincio. ; The circumstances are thus narrated by Abbott, in hi Life of Bonaparte: Though the. Austrians were some fifteen thousand strong, and though they had partially demolished the bridge, the march of Napoleon was retaided scarcely an hour. Napoleon was that day sick, suffering from a violent headache. Having crossed the river, and concerted all his plans for the pursuit of the flying enemy, be went into an old castle by tfle river side to try the c f- fects of a foot-bath. He had but a small retinue with him, his soldiers being dispersed in the pursuit of the fugitives. . lie had just placed his feet in the warm water, when be heard the loud 'clatter of horses' hoefs, as a squadron of Austrian dragoons galloped in to theourt yard. The sentinel at the door shouted "To arms! to arms! the Austrians!" Napoleon sprang from te bath, hastily drew on one boot and with the other in his hand, leaped from the window, e&paped to the garden through the back gate, mounted a horse, and galloped to Massena's division, who were cooking their din ner, at a short distance from-tb castle. The ap pearance of their commander in chief among them in such a plight roused . the soldiers from their camp kettles, and . they rushed in pursuit of the Austrians, who, in their turn, retreated. -This personal. risk induced . Napoleon to establish a body guard, to consist of five hundred veterans, of at least ten years service, who were ever to accompany him. This was the origin of the Imperial Guard, which in the, subsequent wars of Napoleon obtained such a world-wide renown. Terrible Thunder Storms in England. The late English papers speak of severethunder-storms as having. occurred all over England. At Stoke and other villages, known as the "Potteries," the thunder an J lightning coo tinned for upwards of an hour, and accompanied by an im-meuse fall, of rain. Children, and women, and even men; of mature age were heard shrieking in the houses. The Liverpool Post says: v. We regret to state in the storm of Sunday morniog, several persons Were severely injured in and near Lrtudon, and more than one killed, to say nothing of market gardens and gentle men's preserves near L tndon being literally washed away, the standing crop of choice flowers aod exotics being carried, as it were, by a vast cataract, running upon the grounds and destroying everything it came ia contact with.

The circumstances under which Mrs. Latham, aged twenty-six years, aud her daughter, aged even, lost their live instantly on the morning of the 4ih inU, at Fort Wayne, Indiana, axe distressing in the extreme. The mother aod daughter were in a carriage, iu company with Mr. Cosgrova intending to visit friends in a neighboriog town- On attempting to cross the eanal bridge, near the fort, the horse took flight nt a bill posted on the bridge, and com meuced backing. Mr. Cosgrova attempted to check the retrograde movement of the horse, but without effect; and just as he had jumped out for the purpose of taking the horse by the head the car riage backed off the bridge, the railing (as is the case with most ot our bridges) being broken away. Mrs. Latham and her daughter fell out at the back of-'the. buggy to the bottom of the canal, in which there was no water at the lime a distance of fifteen feet, the horse and buggy falling on them, and were instantly killed. The little boy, about four years old, fortunately, remained in the top o; the buggy, and escaped with little injury. The horse was I killed on the spot. Mrs. Latham's neck was dislocated, and some of her ribs broken; her daughter also had her neck broken, and vti otherwise injured. Mr. Cosgrove was only slightly bruised. HUX Sickness. This mysterious and terrible disease has ever since the first settlement of the country occa sionally affected certain localities of Ohio. In this county we have of .late years but rarely heard of it but in Madison, Marion and the southern portion of Union, it has been more common. The last number of the Marion Re-publieaA notices a recent instance in which it proved terribly fatal on a farm in Richland township, in the south-eastern portion of that county. Mr. William Fisher, his wife, two adopted children, and a tenant named Gilson, were all attacked and died within a few day, the best medical skill of the county proving of no avail to arrest the disease or relieve the suffering of the victims.

The Position of Thomas Corwin, 1 : In addressing bis constituents at Xenia, Mr. Corwin. speaking of the Fugitive Act, said "He regarded it tlie sacred duty of every citizen to obey the law when it should have been decided at such by the legislative and judicial depart-menU of the country. He who would not could tut be u g'jod citizen. - lie would have men obey the law and if they disobeyed, he would bring their heads to the Hock, if the law required it." Now, if, as Mr. Corwin asserts, nineteen twentieths of the Republican party in Ohio agree with him about the Fugitive Act, and hold it to be a constitutional law, how eould he pursue the Course he did iu the Republican Convention and permit that body to strike down Judge Swan fur holding to be a couauiuUou&l euactuieutl - How can he now stand up betore an audience in Greene county aod thus declaim, after his con duct in the State Convention. He was a mau of position in that body. He had the ability to speak out ana to rebuke the attempt to strike down Swan, aud if ha had done so his voice nd his counsel would have had iuflueuce, and a check might thus have been given to the de-mauds and the designs of the fanatics. But Mr. Corwin took care while in the position of a Del egate, where ne bad power, to be very silent. ludeed be acquiesced in and approved of all that was done. We announced the fact the morning of the Convention, aud before it had aasembleo, that Corwin had surrendered to Giddings, aud for which aiatemeut w were taken to task by the Cincinnati Times, the announcement we made was true, aud what afterwards transpired in the Convention proved it. Aod we now state that the brief but bold and just language used by Air. (Jorwio, iu relation to it being the abso lute doty of men to obey' the law, and which we quote above, is used by him deceitfully and with the intent to ingratiate himself into toe good opinion of Old Line Whigs, Americans and Conservative Republicans, who hold and believe honestly in what he said, with the - hope onnis part of finally inducing them to onite with the Republican party, f bat is the part assigned bim in the Republican programme of this campaign, and be will endeavor to play it with all the dexterity of which he is capable. Deunison by his letter to the Cleveland meeting bas disaffected many, and Gholsou by his accepting the nomination for Judge, after dishonorable and inde fensible means used to defeat Swan, is not satisfactory to thousands upon thousands. To re con cdle all such, if possible, and bring them into the Republican ranks, is the mission assigned to Corwin, aud after his mean and cowardly surrender in the Convention, and hi treachery to the conservative element in the Republican par. ty, he now goes about aad proclaim that be would have the law obeyed, and those who did not obey it be would bring to the block. Val-liant language, Mr. Corwin, but not to be used io the presence ot Mr. Giddings, not to be pro claimed at Oberlin, or announced in the regions of Ashtabula. No, up there it is Republicanism to assert that those who do obey the law are "pirates" and ought to be murdered by the negroes, and it is to pot power into the hands of such base men that Mr. Corwin will labor with all bis energies. How wonderlolly strange that a man of Mr. Corwin' ability and position can be so very "unfair, dishonest and oncndid. in his intercourse with his fellow men. But he baa sur rendered to Giddings, and is to give help for help again. Next winter will develop the reason why. ;;';; Judge Hancey and the Hahoning Conn -.- ty Meeting. The story which the Republican paper have circulated in relation to the part which Judge Raoney took in an anti fugitive slave law meeting, held in Mahoning County in 1850. shortly after the passage Of that law, is a misrepresentation from beginning to end. The facts are simply these: There was held, shortly after the passage of the law, in Mahoaiug County (as well as in all the counties in that part pf the Stile) a meeting to denounce the fugitive slave act. It was court week, and after the adjournment of the court in the evening, Judge Ranney having just closed the argument in a case, the political meeting was organized, and immediately proceeded to work. - Judge Ranney remained in the Court House, and after many speeches had been made against the fugitive alave law, and forcible resis tance counseled and ad vised, the Judge was called for, and in response to the call spoke from five to ten minutes, to the effect that such meetings were premature: that it would be much better to have the law examined and fully understood, before action of any kind was 't aken against, and that if npon examination it was found to he ob- jectiooaJ, tbere was a legal or constitutional way to have it either amended or repealed, and that any other mode of resistance to it, however objectionable persons might regard it, ought not to be advised by any party. Judge Ranney was not there to attend the meeting; but being in the court room in the line of his profession, when the court adjourned and the Higher Law meeting organized, he simply remained as a spectator, and being thus at the meeting, was called out, and spoke in substance as we have here stated. These are the simple facts, and they are. consistent with Judge Ran ney's character (ot prudence and good sound sense. . : All stories to the reverse of what we here state, in relation to this subject, are falsehood made foe the occasion, by the unscrupulous men of the Republican party. ; - . The firgfr-anthority for this s tor was the editor of the Noble County Register. It happened to turn out that there" was no each paper. Then the editor of the Mahoning County Register was put forth as sponsor to it, and be, we presume, would be qualified, if necessary, that black was white and white was black. It was thought however, that an endorser for him must be hatf and it was then stated that Giddings Touched for it. That may all be but it is still a lie, and would remain one if Giddings swore to it. But Giddings was not there, and therefore whatever be may say about it is all sheer nonsense. We assert,' and npon the - best authority, that any version of Judge Ran ney's connection with the Mahoning meeting, inconsistent with what we bave represented, is a. false and groundless fabrication and slander.- OAto Statesman. - Hard .to "Pleat 1 -''s " It is Imposibls, says tbe ' Harrisbarg Puiriot, for the. present Administratioa to do anything plessing to the Opposition grcmblera.

'ram the Katltaal Des6eraa Judge Oholson Jndg-e Spaldin-Tae Former after the Latter to Prevtnc the Latter being after the Former. ' Judge Gbolson, it seems, does not like tL idea of Judge Spalding catechising him on th subject of the Fugitive Slave Law, which the Judge promised io bis speech at Oberlin to do. Tbe Cincinnati Commercial, which has tbe reputation of being Gholsou's borne organ, bas a bitter article against Judge Spalding, predicated on his letter to tbe Washington JZepuMic, iu which we find tbe following: "Mr. Spalding, it may be well to remark in this connection, was dropped by the same Convention, because be was a rampant Abolitionist, who desired to override alt law which interfered wiib his auti-slavery sentiment. All such men will be dropped wherever tbey cau be found. We do not recognize men to be Republicans here in Southern Ohio, who are io favor of disregarding laws, and who preach fire and sword as rem edies for evils for which a cure, certain though slow, may be found in tbe ballot-box." If Judge Spalding was dropped for the rearon assigned, that he was a rampsut Abolition itU, "who desired to over-ride all law which interfered with his anti-slavery sertitnenU," what was Judge Swan dropped for? Judge Swan sustained the law and the Constitution, and for this he was dropped, and now the Com mercial ha the face to say that Judge Spalding was dropped by the same Convention because he wouldn't do that which Judge Swan bad bis Judicial bead taken off for doing. In Southern Ohio, they do not recognize men as belonging to the Republican party, tbet are in favor of disregarding the laws." although tbey Jo aid and abet io tbe ostracism of a Judge who upholds them. In Northern Ohio, no man can be a Republican who doea not give evidence, generally by some overt act, that he is "in favor of disregarding the la ws." Yet they go in for a J udge, who. his friends say," will do the same thing, and whoso principles as a "Mississippi Slaveholder" wilt make the "assurance; donbly eore that he wiil do as his son says he i l remand every fugitive slave back to .bis master, who is proven to-be a fugitive from labor in the Southern States.
